Tiger King Joe Exotic Set To Wed For 3rd Time

Joe Exotic became a household name in 2020 via the Netflix docuseries, Tiger King. He showed off his elaborate tiger compound and all of the employees he had working for him. The tigers were like his pets and even his children, to which he had no fear. Yet, do not be fooled as they would bite back. The conditions were not safe or proper for the animals. At the same time, the series showcased his rivalry with Carole Baskin whose second husband vanished. He was later declared deceased but there was speculation Carole had something to do with it.

There was so much alleged tiger love and shady dealings done by Joe Exotic but there was more to the story. He had hired a hitman to kill Carole Baskin and that landed him in prison. Joe hoped that the president would pardon him and allow him to live his life again but that is yet to happen. He has wanted to be the president and has tried but failed but the one thing he has been good at is finding love. As seen in the documentary, he was married twice. His first husband, Travis Maldonado shot and killed himself.

He then married Dillon Passage but they also parted ways. With Joe Exotic behind bars, how would the Tiger King star find love? It likely was not that hard given that fans become obsessed with public figures and will seek them out. Yet, Joe did not have to go far as he met his new fiance in prison. According to People, Joe is set to wed Jorge Marquez, 33. The two posed together, Joe’s signature blonde locks peeking out from behind his hat:

“Meet Jorge Marquez he is 33. He is so amazing and is from Mexico. Now, the quest of getting married in prison and getting him asylum or we [will] be leaving America when we both get out. Either way, I wish I would have met him long ago.”

A Long Sentence

Joe Exotic is sentenced to twenty-one years behind bars. It is unclear how long his fiance is there for but the Tiger King also allegedly had prostate cancer. However, he was not seeking any treatment for that. After seeing this news, what did fans and followers have to say? Some questioned if it was real while others were very congratulatory:

  • I wish you both a happy life together!
  • Joe I wish you all the happiness in the world
  • Congratulations Joe.As long as you are happy

It seemed that they just wanted him to be happy so it will be interesting to see how this all plays out. Again, Jorge is from Mexico so they will have a lot of work ahead of them to be together.
